I enjoyed this book. It has a few over used ideas in it, but has some fresh ones too. To be honest, I'm a little tired of the "boy sidekick who wants to be more then friends" theme. I absolutely loved the last third of the book. Not as good as Jenna Black's Fae series, but MUCH better then Melissa M...
The Iron Witch seemed a bit slow to begin with but I was hooked soon enough! This was a unique plot that I really enjoyed and Karen Mahoney was able to keep you informed of what was going on without giving anything away. This book has quickly made its way to the top five in my most anticipated serie...
I was rather disappointed. I had expected so much more out of this one, and had really looked forward to it. This reader adores books that revolve around fey and magic, so when I saw the blurb for "The Iron Witch", which included fey, magic, alchemy, and romance... well, needless to say, I was very ...
Read as part of the 2011 Debut Author ChallengeI did not find myself in the least intrigued or compelled by these characters or the plot. The romance was annoying, the plot too slow in getting started and I have no patience to wait around and see where it might go from here. I found Donna bland, her...
The Iron Witch is the debut novel from UK author Karen Mahoney. And you know what? It's not half bad, as far as debuts go.

Ok, I know it's superficial and whatnot, but this cover is absolutely stunning. Breathtakingly stunning. The golden swirls around what appears to be a terrified girl clutching a... well, it's something gorgeous, whatever it is. Not to mention, the special Waterstones version of this book has gold pa...
I have an idea of where this story is going to go. The "Iron Witch" Donna is an interesting blend of a teenager forced into adulthood. She's the quintessential princess who doesn't have a choice with her life because of who she is and how her parents are. This really isn't too different than othe...
How gorgeous is that cover? It has a slightly Steampunk feel to it, no? And the pages smell amazing. End of positive comments...Donna's journal entry sounded promising but then everything went downhill. Donna goes to a party she doesn't want to go because her friend wants her to go. I wouldn't mind ...
Even though, with this book things started off slow and there was a lot to digest I throughly enjoyed it.I felt the author's take on the world of magic and mystical creatures was an interesting one.My only complaint was that I felt the story went too quickly and that it could have been expanded and ...
